There's No Place Like Here.

Grow.


Who said huge flower headbands are for little gals only...NOT ME!

Say Cheese.

House Of Me.


Today I am trusting my heart to show me in which directions I need to journey.
Today I am grateful for an obligation-free weekend to rest + rejuvenate.
Today I am inspired by bright colors + candid shots that are totally random.

I Got You Kid.

Love his love for her.
Love her love for him.
A father's love is irreplaceable.
A daughter's love is forever.

Dreams In Color.

Because it's Monday + I am wishing for time gone by...I suppose life is too short to live for the weekend, no?

I think so, what's a girl to do?

Down The Road.


I made up reasons to go
Down the road

Somewhere inside of me
There was something she took a liking to
Well I asked her to marry me
She said she really wanted to

Down the road
To see what life’s gonna hold
Down the road

Her momma wants to know
Am I washed in the blood or just in the water
Her daddy wants to know
If I make enough to take his daughter

Down the road
Before he can let her go
Down the road

TGIF.

Dream PG Gift Wrap
Happy TGIF!
Trusting. In God I trust. I believe there is a reason for everything in my life; where I’ve been, where I am, + where I ought to go….
Inspiring. I am inspired by the ability to have a spiritual life. I felt free + my life changed the moment I started listening with the heart + hearing God’s whispers.
Grateful. I am grateful for my family, for teaching me the meaning of marriage, family values, love, for guiding me to a good life, for showing me how not to be materialistic + mostly for instilling + giving me the gift to always believe in myself.

A Constant Balance.

What I wouldn’t give to not be sitting here today. Staring at the calendar wondering. Wondering how the days fell one by one.

My life has been measured in blurred + hazy days. Many of them lapping over in the next without so much as a second thought from me. There have been many moments where I have felt like an outsider looking in…watching someone else’s life play out before me. Surely this can’t be mine. The life I know is contained within a perfectly shaped bubble.

But this new life? It is unfamiliar. It is a constant balance of living + missing. This is the bare bones truth and it is quite simple.

TGIF (Barely).

TODAY:
I'm trusting that when I feel and believe and sense so strongly and easily that my family
I'm grateful for the love of friends + celebrating big +small accomplishments and strength hidden in every moment.
I'm inspired by the resiliency of parents + friends + even myself to persevere with hope .

This Is Bananas.

Stay Your Course.



I definitely feel that I have an abundance of fullness right now.
I am a lucky girl.
What I am missing is focus.
Everyday feels like a little-bit-of-this + a little-bit-of-that in small fragments.
Good fragments.
But, fragments still.
I am disjointed and watching the clock.
I am rushing things.
I am spending too much time worrying about how to make time + too little time using my time wisely.
I'm getting out to please people instead of staying in to practice my passions.
It's that never ending search for harmony again.
This is bananas.

Summer Time Inspirations.

I believe there is sincere value in telling our stories.
It’s how we learn from one another.
How we unearth treasures + wisdom inside ourselves.
It’s how we connect to the joys + hurts of the human spirit.
I try very hard to represent all the pieces of my experience in my writing - the broken pieces + the joyful pieces.
It all matters + it all connects us.
My greatest creative inspiration is finding connections inside everyday conversations.
It’s exploring the small moments in life that hold all the deep meaning.
It’s finding, then releasing, my very own possibility into the world with the hope that it will do good work out there + maybe come back to me in some other moment or shift. It’s the stories of the people in my life - all the courage + tenderness + strength.

So Very Happy.

It's all about believing in oneself.
Plus reaching for the moon despite the fears.
Plus taking flight toward possibility.
So there you have it.
She is so very happy.

Just Plain Beautiful.

I Am Enough.


I'm doing everything I can to be kind to myself these days.
Seeking comfort, acceptance + love from myself, to myself is a good start.
Reminding myself a number of times each day that I am enough.
I can't imagine that something that seems like it should be a given can be so hard to believe + embrace.
